Only 7% conviction rate in 3,536 fatal crashes in B'luru

|July 21, 2025
IN the last four-and-a-half years, 3,536 fatal accidents were reported in Bengaluru, but only 7 per cent of these cases resulted in conviction.
Due to compensation settlements, the accused often go scot-free. On average, 11 accidents are reported daily in the city, including two fatal ones. The number of accidents increased by one-third from 2021 to 2024.
Experts said that the low conviction rate in fatal accidents is due to poor investigation, lack of eyewitnesses and out-of-court settlements.
According to the data from 2021 to July 2025, a total of 3,536 fatal accidents and 15,349 non-fatal accidents were reported, while 250 fatal and 9,811 non-fatal cases resulted in conviction. Meanwhile, 407 fatal and 199 non-fatal cases were disposed.
